The difference in surface level in two reservoirs connected by a siphon

The difference in surface level in two reservoirs connected by a siphon is 7.5 m. The diameter of the siphon if 300 mm and its length is 750 m. The friction coefficient is f=0.025. If air is liberated from the solution when the absolute pressure is less than 1.2 m of water, what will be the maximum length of the inlet leg of the siphon to run full, it the highest point is 5.4 m above the surface level in the upper reservoir? What will be the discharge? [350 m, 107 dm/s] B 5.4m 7.5 m datum level
